Nightmare Moglin, AQWorlds Asst. Game Lead & Artist
Hi, I'm Memet. I might be a nightmare, but it's not so scary if I look like a moglin, right? No one wants to talk to me when I'm scary - how boring.

Talk
I draw stuff. Armors, weapons, pets, Brutalcorn… moglin paws are just the right size to draw it all. That's why I'm a moglin, you know. Moglins are also good at writing quests and cutscenes, so sometimes I do that stuff, too.

Nightmare Moglin
Eeehehehehe! So, you're here to save the little ghost girl from the curse? Dunno why you'd do that. She's creepy, and I LIKE creepy! But if you REALLY think she's worth freeing (mehehehe)… The most terrifying things wind up at the botton of the well, wouldn't you say?

Nightmare Moglin
Wanna hear something spooky?
I've heard Lore is haunted by the ghost of a gamer who was told to go DIAF, and so he did. Now, nothing is left but charred bones and smoke. Some people have said they've seen his spirit while they were fighting the hottest, most fiery monster in Lore. Wonder which one they meant. Something as hot as the sun, perhaps?

Hot?
Can you stand the heat? Are you strong enough to walk upon the surface of the sun? Will YOU DIAF? Find the hottest, most fiery monster in all of Lore, and take your chances! If you fight it yourself, maybe you'll find him too!
And if not, maybe you'll at least find some Nightmare Kibble to use in my merge shop.

Birthday?
This year for my birthday, I'm going to share my birthday gifts with you! My awesome friends Deuce and Tana made some very cool stuff for me, and if you visit my merge shop you can have it too. That incident with the charred ghost spawned a lot of Nightmare Kibble in the surrounding area. If you bring me some, I'll trade you for the items in my shop! You should be able to get it from any of the monsters there.

Hologram of a Birthday Moglin
Hi there, Hero! I am off celebrating my birthday in the Land of Dreams and Nightmares, but I wanted to make sure YOU got a chance to have some fun, too. That's why I've hidden some of my items around the world for you to hunt for.
Have fun!!!

Birthday Hints
I am a moglin nightmarish, as dark as dark can be. But I love a little hedgehog - my Hermes is sweet as can be. If you want I will dream up a Hermes just wanting to travel with you. But you'll have to fight to find him… and I've got some clues, I do!The biggest, furriest beasts are no match for wee little, spiky Hermes.Neither tusks nor teeth nor fangs no fur can keep him from you!No wings, though. Hermeses don't fly, and neither do the creatures who have them.Find the beast in the heart of the ravine to get more clues to the rest of my gear!

Nightmare Birthday Moglin
Hi! In case you didn't know, it's my birthday - which is really just an arbitrarily chosen date, since nightmares aren't actually born. I made some cool stuff as a birthday present to myself, and since you're here I'll share it with you too!

Talk
I have a friend who's deathly afraid of dolls. Something about their dead, soulless eyes? Anyway, he had a yummy dream about life-sized dolls that move on their own, and it gave me an idea for this set.

Nightmare Moglin
What a HOT summer! It's the perfect time to make some money at my tiki bar - at least, you'd think so, right? But my beach is infested with solar elementals, and they're making it too hot for anyone to stick around! Bye- bye, customers. Bye-bye, money! Good thing you showed up when you did. You always help me out.

What is this place?
What do you mean, what is this place? Have you not been here before? If not, why not? I mean… what's wrong with you?! This is the BEST place to party.

Nightmare Moglin
The heat seems like it's gotten a little more under control now. Look! Everyone's out there laying on the sand, enjoying my ice cold drinks! Don't they look happy? Let's make 'em even happier. I have some great ideas for those elementals that are still hanging around here. Don't worry, I'll cut you in.

Scruffy-Looking Nightmare Herder
Oh, this can't be good. Just LOOK at this… this… space-goo! Do you think it ATE Byro and Dax? Man, I hope not. I'll never get my bounty if it did!

Wait… why are you in space?
Well, you know Zorba the Bakk… right? Well, I told him I'd do a couple of runs for him 'cause I still owe him money… and you're going to help me! If you don't remember Zorba the Bakk, well… maybe you should go get your memory jogged. Ehehehe.

Scruffy-Looking Nightmare Herder
Ok, ok - I think I've got it! After carefully assessing the composition of this “space-goop”, I've concocted an extremely sophisticated cleaning solution that should knock it right out.

Yeah? What's in this "secret sauce"?
Vinegar and baking soda. What? This stuff will clean anything! I'm betting it will destroy this crapola, too. But we're gonna have to find the source, or it's just gonna come right back.

Scruffy-Looking Nightmare Herder
Well, that was fun. Wasn't it? I think it was. I have all KINDS of ideas for new bad dreams. I think Zorba's gonna be helping with that, too. How do you think it'll go with him and that asteroid?

Nightmare Moglin
I guess we don't really have to stay in here anymore. But it's kinda fun, right? Don't you think it feels all clandestine and naughty? We should keep it around. We should keep Cobby's freaky happyland out there, too. It adds ambience.

Nightmare Moglin, Tiki Entrepreneur
Aloha, Hero! Ready to help me get my awesome new tiki bar off the ground? It'll be fun! All I need you to do is help me create some new drink recipes. You'll collect the ingredients and then we'll make the drinks. Oh! And each time we make something new, we'll have to get the approval of the Tiki God by feeding a drink to the tiki statue next to the bar.

Tiki God?
Yep! This handsome fella is called Memehano, and he's what inspired me to try out my new tropical career! How can I possibly serve anything to my future customers if he doesn't think it's good enough? That would be just irresponsible.

Nightmare Moglin, Tiki Entrepreneur
Memehano the Tiki God is rampaging - I guess all the sugar, venom, and fire were just too much for him to handle! If we're going to make him stop, we'll have to find a way to calm him down. Luckily, you have me to guide you through it! Oh, stop making that face. It'll be FINE.

Nightmare Moglin, Connoisseur of Dreams
Embermane? Yeah, she's here. Her brother Frostmane has been stuck in a really intense nightmare. If you kill the nightmare, you'll free them both. Unfortunately, it's a pretty strong one, and I don't think it wants to be found. You're going to need some help.

Talk
Oh, you want ME to help? Hmm, tell you what. I'll help you get to Frostmane's nightmare if you'll let me have it when you're through. I haven't eaten a nightmare that powerful in a long time. Do we have a deal?

Nightmare Moglin, Connoisseur of Dreams
<Hero> I've missed you! Have you come back to find some more snacks for me? …Are you my minion now? I can call you my "friend" instead if it'll make you more comfortable.

Nightmare Moglin
It was in the meat! MY MEAT! My little alien buddies are using it to control the population. It wasn't designed for them at all - it was made for YOU! I had no idea this would happen, I swear.

Nightmare Moglin
Ooooooh. I thought you weren't supposed to feel this way until AFTER the Feast. Hero, you and I need to get ready to serve the Feegrix their just… deserts? Desserts? It doesn't matter. As soon as I can stand, we're going to give them a taste of what they dished out.

Nightmare Moglin, Former Meat Enthusiast
So, uhh, before you leave, there's something you should know. This ship we're on? It's basically a meat farm… and the meat is YOU! We're gonna have to fight our way out of here, and by "we" I mean "you". I'll meet you on the other side. Try not to beat up your friends TOO badly,

Nightmare Moglin, Former Meat Enthusiast
This stuff they're feeding your friends is keeping them docile and complacent. They're happy to give these mooks free labor - heck, they're even happy to be DINNER! Just like before, you'll be the brawn, and I'll be right behind you.

Nightmare Moglin, Former Meat Enthusiast
I think I've got it figured out. You know those crystals they all have on their heads? It's keeping them psychically linked to some kind of …l don't know, alien queen? They're all doing her bidding - even our friends! If we defeat the queen, we take ALL of this down!

Nightmare Moglin, Meat Enthusiast
Crap. They're gonna be here soon, and they're gonna see what a mess we made of this project. What a disaster! We can't let them take away my funding, hero! We've gotta clean up - fast!

Nightmare Moglin and Fear Tester
Mmmm, just like your nightmares, candy is delicious! Until you eat too much of it, that is! WHOOOOOOOOOPS! Oooh, you don't look too good. Maybe the Carnival Candy didn't agree with you! Or MAYBE eating the candy lets you see the Clowns for what they REALLY are!

Nightmare Moglin and Fear Tester
Interesting, very interesting. You aren't so afraid of clowns that it you had to run away. That is VERY interesting! On to the next test: Spiders! They're my FAVORITE… snacks! Fry'em up with some tearsauce and go! But maybe you don't like them so much? Let's see!

Nightmare Moglin and Fear Tester
Interesting, very interesting. You aren't so afraid of spiders that you were paralyzed by gear. That is VERY interesting! On to the next test: Snakes! Horrible creatures, am I right? You walk into their pits uninvited and they throw a HISS-y fit! *Giggle!*

Nightmare Moglin and Fear Tester
Interesting, very interesting. You aren't so afraid of snakes that you were paralyzed by gear OR fear. That is VERY interesting! … I think you'll fall in love with the next test! It's a very fair, simple, and balanced test. I promise! *Giggle*

Nightmare Moglin and Fear Tester
Even if you had a healthy fear of heights, you you made it across, and weren't scared by the height or the unshake bridge or the possibility of falling. Buuuuut… what about something TRULY sick? Sewage!!! Germs and muck and ick galore!

Nightmare Moglin and Fear Tester
You made weren't sick with fear, and it the last room, THAT is a heroic feat of its own! So maybe I need to be a little sharper with this next test: Needles! They are like baby-sized blades that are easy to lose and then stab you in the ark as you get ready for bed! I <3 them very much! But… probably you won't.

Nightmare Moglin and Fear Tester
I'd say you made a good point here! Not afraid of needles. Check! And speaking of checking… it's time to test your fear of… DOLLS! Dolls are cute. And I'm cute! But dolls are also evil. But not an EVIL NIGHTMARE like me! So I guess you're lucky that it's only dolls you need to battle here, right? Right!

Nightmare Moglin and Fear Tester
Head up high, Hero, you smashed those dolls to bits! But I can't guarantee that these walls won't do the same to you… because THIS test is to see if you're afraid of being crushed!

Nightmare Moglin and Fear Tester
I'm crushed that you didn't show more fear. I mean, I smelled a LITTLE, but you fought it. That takes some guts. It's a good thing YOU have some; that skeleton sure didn't! But I'm sorry to say.., YOU'RE FIRED! *Giggle!* No, just kidding. But I won't be if you don't escape this room very, very, very fast! It's getting HOT in here!

Nightmare Moglin and Fear Tester
I wasn't kidding when I said you'd be fired if you didn't hurry up! But you did, and now your reward is… a test underwater! GLUB GLUB GLUB! *Giggle* If you don't want to be all washed up, you' better find out how to get out of here! You don't want to be drowning your sorrows in the bottom of the deep blue sea, do you?

Nightmare Moglin and Fear Tester
Breathe deep, it's all going to be alright. *Giggle* You fought through your fear like a true Hero! And that's a good thing, because the NEXT test is…. saving the day! Or, in this case, a wee li'l puppy! You can save one itsy, bitsy, teensy puppy, right?

Nightmare Moglin and Fear Tester
Oooooh! Oh no. You… didn't save the puppy?! Oh dear! But look at you, continuing on like a Champion. So what do you think, Hero? Could you stand continuing on through eternity… alone? *Giggle* Things would start getting pretty dull… unless you began fighting the nothingness itself!

Nightmare Moglin and Fear Tester
Looks like you were too busy battling nothingness to be scared! That's a good thing, though. because we've arrived at the penultimate test: Fear of failure itself! Twig is HUNGRY! Fish and Ice Cream aren't enough for him anymore, and it would a TRUE nightmare if he didn't get enough food! *Giggle*

Nightmare Moglin and Fear Tester
Goood morning, sunshine! Welcome back to the REAL world! Phoenixrise Gate is just about to open, but first… don't forget! There is a mysterious new player in the Queen of Monsters' game and they do NOT want you to know their identity yet. But… maybe you HAVE seen them before. Or maybe you haven't, and I'm just teasing you. Maybe! Have fun trying to guess! I've got to go report your test results!

Nightmare Moglin
Ever since Calico Cobby took control of the dream network, we have to hide out in this "spookeasy" to get our nightmare work done. It's had a terrible effect - writers like poor Criminy Thicket haven't been able to get any work done since this nightmare ban was enacted!

Calico Cobby?
He started off as an innocuous, pleasant little dream. A cute kitten who pranced through people's heads and made them happy. Now, he's calling himself the Dreammaster, and he's trying to eradicate bad dreams. He thinks he's creating a utopian paradise, but …well, needless to say, I disagree.

Criminy Thicket?
Of course you know Criminy Thicket - he's one of the most popular authors on Lore! People love his dark, dreary stories. But without any nightmares, his inspiration has dried up. If you help me get him some bad dreams, he'll be able to write again.

Nightmare Moglin, AQW Artist
Y'know…lots of people would think it's gloomy in here. Not me! Lights always shine brighter in darkness, y'know? Besides, invaders NEVER usually look in here… until THIS one!

Scruffy-Looking Nightmare Herder
I borrowed some money from infamous crime lord Zorba the Bakk to fund an awesome new endeavor that sadly never took off. Now, he's wanting me to pay him back. So I've set up a refreshment stand in the middle of this desert. Everyone's gotta be thirsty here, right? I'll make the money back in no time!
